The Democratic Republic of Prevaland is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by President Athan Bley with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and daily referendums. The compassionate, cheerful population of 15.451 billion Prevalandians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Prevalent City. The average income tax rate is 92.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Prevalandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,089 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 135,246 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A mushroom a day keeps the sadness away, trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, and visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with President Athan Bley. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prevaland's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Prevaland is ranked 13,643^rd in the world and 1^st in North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.85 law-abiding acts per hour.
